Jane is the Owner and President of Daphne's Head Covers, a family-owned, labor of love that manufactures just about every sort of animal head cover that can be imagined for golf clubs. Jane has offices located in Phoenix and internationally. In growing her business to the global status it has become, she had two goals: One was to remain solvent. The other one was, as her mother always said, "We must do good while we're doing well." That was hugely important to her. In that regard, Jane has created a fund raising head cover for Gabriel's Angels an organization that delivers healing pet therapy to at-risk children. Jane's entrepreneurial ambitions were awakened when she was a pre-teen and wanted a sailboat. Her mother said if she wanted one, she had to think of a business and make her own money. So she started making and selling toys and those morphed into puppets and ultimately to Daphne's Head Covers, the firm named for her mother. Today approximately 200 PGA men and women have Daphne's Head Covers. And, yes, Jane got the sailboat.

Congratulations Jane!! I'm up to 5-6 different Daphne's covers floating around the house, and they are so much better than any other brand.
 
Congrats, Jane. Daphnes is a hell of a brand and a hell of a company. I love my Boston Terrier C.J. Dog. Best HC's on the market and it's not even close.
 
Woohoo! Congrats, Jane!!! I've been wondering if a Daphne's headcover would fit my Classic...

Most definitely dude. I have the turtle and the fish and they comfortably fit my driver which is 460cc. They looks great too and rep THP!
 
I bet it would. C.J. Dog hangs with the Mashie for me though. I didn't try it on the 910.

This has now become a large ponder.
